// DTC FORECASTING

Know what DTC will generate before you commit spend or place POs.

DTC forecasting is different from retail forecasting. The margin structures are different. The seasonality patterns are different. The customer behavior is different. Drivepoint is built for DTC-first brands, SKU-level forecasts connected to your full financial model, updated daily, so you always know what's coming before you commit.

DTC forecasting for consumer brands.

01 · DTC Modeling

SKU-level DTC forecasts connected to your full financial model.

Most DTC forecasting happens in a spreadsheet that doesn't talk to anything else. Drivepoint builds DTC forecasts directly into your financial model, P&L, cash flow, inventory, so every forecast has full financial context. Change a promo plan: see what it does to margin. Change a media budget: see what it does to cash.

  • SKU-level DTC revenue forecasting by product, promotion, and channel
  • Integrated directly into your P&L, cash flow, and inventory plan
  • Promo and media scenario modeling built in

02 · Live Data Sync

Updated daily. Not quarterly.

DTC moves fast. Drivepoint connects directly to Shopify, your ad platforms, and your ERP, pulling actuals daily so your forecast always reflects what's actually happening. No manual data pulls. No waiting for month-end to know where you stand. Fly with instruments, not on gut feel.

  • Daily sync from Shopify, Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, and more
  • Actuals update automatically, no manual data entry required
  • Know your DTC position any day, not just at close
Updated daily. Not quarterly.
03 · Performance Tracking

Track DTC vs. plan in real time, mid-month, not post-mortem.

"Are we on track for the month?" shouldn't require a data pull and a 24-hour wait. Drivepoint shows you DTC revenue and margin pacing vs. plan, updated daily, with variance flagged automatically so you can course-correct before the window closes instead of explaining the miss at month-end.

  • Daily DTC revenue and margin pacing vs. plan
  • Variance flagged automatically as it develops
  • Course-correct mid-month, not after the miss is already in the books
